Ninja Scroll Collector’s Edition Blu-Ray Preorder Gets Big, Much-Needed Discount At Amazon
The cult-classic ’90s anime film Ninja Scroll is celebrating its 30th anniversary this year with multiple big events, including a limited North American theatrical run in September followed by a new collector’s edition Blu-ray dropping October 22. The Blu-ray comes in a steelbook case and includes a smattering of bonus content, and preorders are available at multiple retailers.
You can even get a big discount at Amazon and Target, which lets you save over 30% on your preorder. This is obviously a substantial price cut, but considering Ninja Scroll’s Limited Edition Steelbook release has a rather ridiculous $70 list price, the discount is perhaps a bit inflated to make up for it.
$47.49 (was $70)
The Ninja Scroll Limited Edition Steelbook includes a Blu-ray copy of the animated film presented in 1080p with either the English or Japanese voice tracks and English subtitles. It also features a full-length audio commentary with director Yoshiaki Kawajiri and character designer Yukata Minowa. You also get a sleek steelbook case featuring promotional art on the covers and interior panels, plus a removable slipcover.
Ahead of its October 22 release, you can preorder the Ninja Scroll Collector’s Edition at Amazon, Walmart, Target, and Crunchyroll. Amazon and Target are taking preorders for $47.49, which is significantly less than Ninja Scroll’s (rather ridiculous) $70 list price. Amazon initially opened preorders at the $70 price, but if you already ordered, Amazon will automatically give you the best deal up until you are charged, which doesn’t happen until your order ships. Walmart is still selling Ninja Scroll for $70, while Crunchyroll has it for $52.49.
For those unfamiliar with the film, Ninja Scroll is a violent, action-packed story set in Feudal Japan during the Edo Period. The movie follows Jubei Kibagami, a vagabond swordsman who finds himself embroiled in a supernatural plot to take down the Tokugawa Shogunate. While it originally premiered in Japan in 1993, it didn’t get an official release in North America until 2012. Despite that, it still managed to become one of the most popular anime releases of the 90s, ranking among other titles aimed at mature audiences like Akira, Ghost in the Shell, and the original Berserk TV series.
Speaking of Berserk, you can get the original 1997 series on Blu-ray for $46 (was $60). The collection released earlier this year, and it will be followed up by Berserk: The Golden Age Arc Memorial Edition ($20 discount) later this month. Meanwhile, Akira is only $18 on 4K Blu-ray, and Ghost in the Shell is only $14.
